Answer: pharming

Step-by-step explanation:
Pharming is an attack where a user is redirected from a legitimate web resource to a hacker controlled one. Here, the hacker is using a realistic looking imitation to get the victim to input the desire secret credentials. If the victim inputs those credentials, then the hacker can use those credentials later to compromise the victim further.
